Awesome!
I tried to send you a pm but couldn't find that feature in your profile.
You're the first one here who has received the 2011 Macbook Pro
with the 512GB SSD. Is there any chance that you could check what kind
of SSD Apple put into the Macbook Pro?
I would also like to hear about your first impressions regarding the SSD.

Hello, longtime lurker and recently registered.

My Macbook Pro 13" showed up yesterday, my second Apple computer and possibly close to my 40th over the years. I've built many PCs and including a few Hackintoshes.

Glad to be here, looking forward to discussing future products and rumors with you all.

The SSD is reported as Apple SSD TS512C. A google search suggests this might be a Toshiba drive, the same one used on prior generation MBPs. Xbench results below. My previous Mac was a Mac SE circa 1987 so I don't have a good frame of reference. From boot-up "gong" to desktop is ~15 seconds.

Now I know why I have no tracking information! :D
I've ordered a case as well, and they are shipped from different places, so I won't get tracking info until they're merged ^^

I have the same times but UPS says Scheduled Delivery Friday, 04/03/2011, would be great if it came earlier.
 
Pumped :)

Just ordered my 17" an hour ago and it went to "prepared for shipment" in about 15-20 minutes! Supposed to deliver between the 2nd and 7th......really hoping its here by Friday!! Think it will be with the 2-3 day shipping?? This will put my 2009 13" to shame :)
